Description of Resource:
I chose this book because I am interested in being a children's librarian and in promoting literacy among children. Reading Magic: Why Reading Aloud to Our Children Will Change Their Lives Forever by Mem Fox looks like a good resource for anyone interested in promoting reading. As an elementary librarian, I need to learn effective ways to read aloud to children and to promote story hour with the teachers and the school. Two aspects of this book caught my eye: 1) Mem Fox discusses three secrets to reading (I am curious about what they are), and 2), she provides tips on finding good books to read aloud.
